Carl Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 I love the Internet. You can read about "I Love Rock and Roll" and watch the video of the original version by The Arrows, which is Alan's group. Here are a few things that make this guy interesting: With The Arrows, had his own TV show.One of the first guys to do Glam Rock, and he explains exactly what that is and how Bob Dylan influenced it.He grew up with Laura Nyro and was there when she was writing her classic songs.He wrote the first song to be taken to space.He was the first American to live in Japan and become a pop star. I hope the interview reflects this, but Alan is a very likable and passionate guy who seems to live by the mantra, When in doubt, do it. With all the world travels under his belt, he could be in a Dos Equis commercial. Interview with Alan Merrill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
